About the Kenyan Shilling.

Where it comes from

Kenya's shilling dates from 1966, when the newly created Central Bank of Kenya replaced the East African shilling at par. The old regional currency, shared with Uganda and Tanzania, remained valid in Kenya until 1969 while the new notes spread through the country.

Good to know

In 2019 Kenya scrapped its old 1,000 shilling notes in four months to flush out illicit cash and counterfeits, and unexchanged notes worth 7.4 billion shillings became worthless overnight. Since the 2010 constitution bans portraits of individuals on money, the replacement notes carry big five animals instead.
